Hardware Specifications

1. Outline

The LCD Control Terminal ZM-300 series is programmable display equipment with the LCD

screen and the touch panel functions.

The ZM-300 series programlessly communicates to a programmable controller (PLC),

displays a screen in various ways based on the screen data, and allows you to input data

through the touch panel.

To make screen data for the ZM-300 series, use ZM-71SE, Ver.2.0.0.0 or

higher.(When using ZM-373TA/371TL/373TL, ZM-383S/383SA, use version

2.1.0.0 or a newer version.)

The ZM-300 series inherits and heightens the features of the ZM-42 to 82 series as

described below.

1. 32K-color Display

32,768-color display makes colorful expression possible. Bitmap files are clearly

displayed in brilliant colors.

2. CF Card Interface as Standard

The CF card can be used for saving multiple screen data, sampling data, recipe data,

hard copy images, and other various usages. Large-sized video capture images, JPEG

or WAV files can be saved.

3. Connector for 10BASE-T (for high-performance type only)

This connector enables Ethernet connection with a host computer. High-speed

communications are possible via Ethernet for uploading/downloading screen data and

reading/writing data from/to the server.

4. Video Display Upgraded (for high-performance type only, optional)

The video display function is upgraded drastically to allow: saving the current video

screen, taking snapshots of multiple exposures, superimposing a semi-transparent

operation screen on a video display, showing four video channels at the same time, and

so on.

5. Web Server Function (for high-performance type only)

The ZM-300 (high-performance) screens are converted into HTML files and displayed

on the WWW browser using the Ethernet.

6. Animation Function

The animation function enables representation of the field close to the real image.

7. Play of WAV File (for high-performance type only, optional)

WAV files can be played with ease simply by connecting the option unit to the speaker.

It is possible to use sound for notifying the field conditions, such as an occurrence of an

error. The monitoring operator can work from a distance.

8. Matrix touch panel

As for ZM-373TA/373TL or ZM-383S/383SA, 2-point touch is possible on the screen,

allowing the models to have a broader range of applications.
